It's no secret that I love 100% linen bed sheets. I'm not sure if it's because they make me feel like I'm in the South of France, that they work even when they're crumpled, or just the way they have that relaxed, natural vibe...

So go on, be bold, invest in some wallpaper. Version 2.0.

Note: I always suggest getting a sample before purchasing to check that you're happy with the colour & quality.

Since I started working as an Interior Designer, I've described my style as 'classic contemporary' which to me means respecting a building's heritage and keeping certain features that are in keeping with the time in which it was built but also bringing it into the 21st Century, basically adapting said houses for modern life - all in a timeless way. Design which lasts and won't go out of fashion after a few years.

However, I realised the other day that there are a few key things that I'm drawn to in Interiors which have an influence on my design style -

For a while now, I've been thinking about updating my website so here it is...! Please bear with me as I update things and make the site fully functional. As for the blog, I'm starting from scratch so this is officially entry number one. More informative than inspiring but watch this space.
